Solar Energy Systems Rebate Program
Solar Energy Rebate Program
This rebate has been extended for qualifying systems that are purchased and installed in residential premises before January 1, 2010.
The Solar Energy Systems Rebate returns the Retail Sales Tax (RST) paid on solar energy systems to homeowners or builders, who install the energy systems into residential premises, including multi-residential premises, or who expand or upgrade an existing solar energy system.
Solar energy can be used to power small appliances and large systems can create enough energy to take a home off the electrical grid. Solar thermal systems can be used as an alternative to electrical heating systems.
The Benefit
Rebates are available for a qualifying alternative energy system or its components, or upgrades or expansions made to existing or new systems purchased on or after November 26, 2002 and on or before November 25, 2007.
The rebate applies to components that are required to operate a solar energy system. This includes solar collector panels (photovoltaic or thermal), charge converters, inverters and other applicable components such as wiring, controllers, pumps, tubing, heat exchangers and energy storage tanks. The rebate also applies to the first battery purchased to store the energy produced by the system.
